What percentage of new drivers would you say, get fired for not making book? Is this the reason for the high turnover for drivers?

Asked by Rob almost 12 years ago

taxi drivers have a 60% turnover rate, the biggest reason for the high turnover is mostly the money though when you start you are on a bad shift it takes some time to make any kind of money

What do you think the cause of the high (66%) turnover rate is? And a related question: What is hardest thing for you about being a cab driver? You've hung in there for 7 years. Thanks.

Asked by Ian over 11 years ago

it's a stressful job because of the long hours a lot of people can't handle it,  the hardest part for me is the kids that will never work a day in their lift it makes me sick how blind to the world they are

Q and A's? Can drivers or pax smoke in a cab? Thanks!

Asked by Kay over 12 years ago

thats a mouth full lol no that does not change my answer most drivers have heard and seen it all and are comfortable in most situations, I'm not sure what would be a good figure to tell you the truth but like I said before you will be fine doing it yourself, hell might even meet someone while down there.  No I do not make any money doing these, and as long as the driver doesnt mind you smoking in the cab then it's fine however its actually illegal for me to tell you that you cannot smoke in my cab....its weird
